Pretending so will only lead to the continuation of the rule of the clerics in Iran,\u201d he asserted, emphasizing the futility of reforming a system fundamentally built on oppression.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Pompeo highlighted the long history of sacrifices made by the Iranian resistance, particularly the <a href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/about-iranian-opposition-pmoi-mek\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MEK (Mujahedin-e Khalq)<\/a>, in their fight against the regime: \u201cIran will be free, but only by those who have sacrificed for decades, who have paid the highest price, who have withstood massacres and imprisonments. It can only be freed by you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He recalled the <a href=\"https:\/\/iran1988.org\/1988-massacre\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">1988 massacre<\/a> of 30,000 political prisoners, the majority of whom were <a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/peoples-mojahedin-pmoi-mek-iran\/\" rel=\"\">MEK<\/a> members and supporters, describing it as a stark example of the regime\u2019s brutality. \u201cThe MEK has been the target of terror abroad and the subject of massive demonization campaigns by the regime,\u201d he said. \u201cEvery week in Friday prayer ceremonies across Iran, the regime chants slogans against the resistance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Pompeo condemned these propaganda efforts and defended the MEK against baseless accusations, saying, \u201cI wouldn\u2019t be here if that\u2019s what it was. Sadly, thousands of parliamentarians across the world don\u2019t understand.

This plan includes key pillars such as free elections within six months of the regime\u2019s overthrow, gender equality, the separation of religion and state, and a non-nuclear Iran. He called it a comprehensive and viable roadmap:\u00a0\u201cMrs. Rajavi, you\u2019ve repeatedly stated there\u2019s only a single path, one path to the regime\u2019s end, and that is being achieved by the Iranian people and the organized resistance inside of Iran.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Pompeo emphasized that the resistance\u2019s demand is not for foreign intervention but for recognition of their right to resist. He declared, \u201cThis plan does not demand regime change from outside, from the United States or others. It doesn\u2019t ask for boots on the ground or even money from outside. The only demand of the resistance is the recognition of the Iranian people\u2019s plight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pompeo called on the international community to support the Iranian Resistance: \u201cNew U.S. policy, as the new administration comes in, needs to create even more space for the Iranian resistance to be vigilant on the ground. The focal point of this policy has to be recognition of the Iranian people\u2019s right to resist and recognition of the National Council of Resistance of Iran as the single best alternative to the clerics ruling Iran.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-69087\" src=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Mike-Pompeo-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"522\" onerror=\"this.src='https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/themes\/hello-elementor\/images\/broken-image-placeholder.gif';this.srcset='https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/themes\/hello-elementor\/images\/broken-image-placeholder.gif';\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Mike-Pompeo-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Mike-Pompeo-2-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Mike-Pompeo-2-768x401.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>He described the NCRI as a capable and democratic alternative to the regime, one that has garnered significant international support due to its resilience and commitment. \u201cYour movement has shown the incredible capacity and resilience to end the regime\u2019s brutality,\u201d he said, lauding the resistance for exposing Iran\u2019s nuclear weapons and missile programs.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Pompeo\u2019s speech was imbued with hope and confidence in the Iranian people\u2019s ability to achieve freedom. He shared his admiration for the resistance fighters, recounting his visit to <a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/articles\/2019\/08\/ashraf-3-home-to-iranian-opposition-group-mek-in-albania\/12507\/\" rel=\"\">Ashraf 3<\/a>, the NCRI\u2019s base in Albania, where he saw a red-covered book containing the names of thousands of martyrs. \u201cThese loved ones aren\u2019t just numbers to you. They aren\u2019t just names in a book. They are the people who will deliver this free Iran,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He called for accountability for the regime\u2019s atrocities, saying, \u201cThis is worthy because it is going to lead to an outcome for which you have all worked so hard for so many years. It is worthy because it will, in the end, create the capacity to hold accountable the slaughterers, the indecent, those who have committed such atrocities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Pompeo concluded with a heartfelt message: \u201cThis is the time for the West to recognize the right of the Iranian people, this fundamental right that is so basic to every human being created in the image of God, to live with human dignity.
